<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 1600900, member: 25270"]For the last two years or so, I have been focusing exclusively on foreign coins since the prices of U.S. coins was so high for the coins I needed, so I am a little out of the loop. I don't really know what's trending with the U.S. coins or even what the key dates are anymore. Anyway, I was looking for some coins to sell so I could buy more foreign coins, and I found some U.S. coins I had doubles of. I like big, silver U.S. coins but I decided to get rid of this 1920 half dollar since it was kind of worn and I figured I could always find a better example if I wanted one. Spot price is about $10.70 and I didn't know if I'd even get that since silver has been falling. I was very surprised when it sold last night for more than $17. So what I'm wondering is, was I just really lucky, or are halves like this selling for way more than their silver value lately? If so, I should get some more to sell. I think I got this for about $6 back when silver was just starting to go up.</p><p>Here's the auction link.</p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1920-Walking-Liberty-half-dollar-silver-coin-low-shipping-price-/181048228280?item=181048228280&ViewItem=&ssPageName=ADME:L:EOISSA:US:1123&nma=true&si=oUrKqLzuHGQcqL3FD6qfvh2GM2U%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1920-Walking-Liberty-half-dollar-silver-coin-low-shipping-price-/181048228280?item=181048228280&ViewItem=&ssPageName=ADME:L:EOISSA:US:1123&nma=true&si=oUrKqLzuHGQcqL3FD6qfvh2GM2U%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/1920-Walking-Liberty-half-dollar-silver-coin-low-shipping-price-/181048228280?item=181048228280&ViewItem=&ssPageName=ADME:L:EOISSA:US:1123&nma=true&si=oUrKqLzuHGQcqL3FD6qfvh2GM2U=&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
